:: Learn How To Swim (Part 2) ::

Today will be the last day for me to learn swimming from my instructor. It's been 7 times for me to swim and yesterday I could really swim! My instructor was really happy and she even told the other instructor that I really can swim now. Previously she looks like she was tired of me already.

I also don't want to disappoint her as she is really a ggod instructor, just that she can't speak english or malay, so she can't explain to me much.

I really need to thank Nurul Azli as his explaination really helped me. He said "Bila tenggelam, kayuh je tangan, confirm naik punya and make sure badan kita posisi meniarap. Tangan kayuh ke bawah dan bukan ke tepi. Kepala jangan dalam sangat, badan akan naik dan time tu akan cukup masa untuk breath."

What he means are "Look at your hands, inhale, kick your legs and glide.." It's very simple. No stress at all. I learn this technic from youtube and furture explaination from Nurul Azli. It really work! Next time I guess I know how to explain to the beginner swimmer. Yay!

Here is the video that I watched to get the correct technic :

:: Learn How To Swim ::

Today is my 3rd day of learning how to swim. My first day was on last Monday. I already standby with swimsuit when I went to the swimming pool. The funny thing is, at first the lady named Hii Pick Huong didn't want to teach me as she doesn't know how to speak Malay or English but I tried to convince her, as long as she understand me and I understand her, that's enough. At last she said okay. Hehehehe...

1st day, she taught me on how to move my legs like a frog inside the water. At 1st I put my chest on the swimming pool's floor and my legs on the water. After that I held on to the  wall and whole body was inside the water.

2nd day, she put the polystyrene on my back and I still holding the wall. Then she gave me the surf board to hold and I swam. Then she threw the surf board and let me swim without holding onto anything. To tell the truth, actually I drown for few times due to don't know how to stand on the water. Hahaha...

The 3rd day, I learned on how to swim without polystyrene on my back and without surf board as well. In addition, she taught me how to move my hands like a frog to. The 3rd day, my fingers all cram but I really satisfied as I start swimming by my own!

In future, for those who wants to swim my get ready with the swimsuit, the cap, and also the goggles. And in addition, can get the surf board as well.

First day, I didn't bring the goggles so I had to buy the cheap one at the swimming pool. The water kept entering the goggles. The second day, I kept drowning as I didn't know how to stand on my feet inside the water. The third day, my fingers in both hands cram!
